[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is it somehow ok for all these posters to say to LIE on a college application form. If you are Asian say Asian, if you are mixed use mixed, how can you lie? As a white person, heck I will just check Hispanic or black as 2 percent of the 23andme came back as other. This is unreal that people are lying on college forms to game the admissions. This must be why trump is looking into changes. [/quote] It is unethical, but not really unreal. Colleges are stupidly allowing people to self report a piece of information that can have a significant positive impact on their application if they check a certain box. They do this without even attempting to verify that the applicant is being honest. This is about as dumb as letting students self report their SAT scores. [/quote]
